What you'll learn:
- Understand the structure of Terraform configuration
- Understand a full Terraform deployment, how it is structured, and how does it work
- Build your own Terraform configuration and deploy it to GCP
- Extend your Terraform configuration with modules and optimize for better results
- Use Google's provided modules to build optimized configurations that are based on Google's best practices
- Be able to work with Google's Cloud Foundation Fabric framework to build and deploy landing zones in GCP
Unlock the Power of Infrastructure as Code on GCP with Terraform!
Transform Your Cloud Infrastructure
Welcome to the definitive course on leveraging Terraform within Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to automate, manage, and scale your cloud infrastructure. Whether you're a DevOps professional, a cloud engineer, or someone looking to harness the power of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) on GCP, then this course is the place for you!
Why Terraform with GCP?
Terraform, an open-source tool created by HashiCorp, enables you to define and provision a cloud infrastructure using a high-level simple to understand declarative configuration language. When combined with the power and flexibility of Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Terraform becomes a great tool and resource to manage your complex GCP environments and deployments..
How to use Terraform with GCP?
There are many ways you can use Terraform with GCPin your operations...
You can use it to deploy new landing zones in GCP very fast and easily
Use Terraform to provision and scale simple or complex environments fast and without effort
Automate your operations in GCPby integrating with CI/CDpipelines for automated resource deployments
Quickly deploy and reset sandbox and testing environments without effort and additional cost
What is in this course?
This course will walk you from the basics of Terraform in GCP. We will discover the steps to download and install Terraform, work with a starter simple deployment, and then expand that to a more scalable, more optimized deployment.
I will cover the most common services and operations in GCP with Terraform such as:
How to create projects in GCPusing Terraform
How to provision VMinstances in GCPusing Terraform
How to provision and configure managed instance groups in GCPusing Terraform
How to setup Global HTTPSload balancing in GCPusing Terraform
How to work with Global IPAddresses and managed SSLcertificates inGCPusing Terraform
How to work with VPCand firewall in GCPusing Terraform
How to work with IAM and service accounts in GCPusing Terraform
How to provision and manage Cloud SQLinstances in GCPusing Terraform
How to create Cloud Armor policies in GCPusing Terraform
Then once we cover the important topics of working with GCPusing Terraform, I'll cover more interesting topics in Terraform such as building modules to extend and reuse our configuration anywhere!
I will close this course by showing you an quick overview and a demo on Google Cloud Foundation Fabric and Fabric FAST, which is a set of Terraform modules and blueprints to manage GCPand create scalable landing zones following Google's best practices!
What's more?Well, everything we build together in this course will be a reusable take away from this which you can reuse and customize for any use case and need that you have in your real life and work!
Can't wait to have you there! Share your feedback and what you learned with the others, and let's all go further and beyond what's in this course after you finish it!
